$5.00 is pretty stiff for 1/2 a mile. That money gets you about 100 miles around here. I figured it would only be $.75 or so.

I just talked to Seth and he assured me that the free toll is in effect during the hours posted. Then again, he told me the same thing last year. He did tell me that he has another letter? I'm going to call my toll road people before I get on the "short-cut".

Where are the free hours posted Charlie?

I didn't see the toll-free hours listed. Guess I'm blind. I'm old. LOL
